C., Dec. 11. item of $406,000 was stricken from the propriation bill last Saturday upon p sentative James F. Byrnes of South C appropriations committee. Medical Building In the stricken items called for maintenance; $34,000 for $9,000 for equipment of the medical laboratory; $5,000 for material and apparatus for the science laboratory; $3,000 for the library; $30,000 for improvement of grounds and repairs of buildings; $15,500 for fuel and light, and $185,000 toward the construction of a building for the medical school at a cost of $370,000, to be equipped by alumni and friends at not less than $130,000. 1 The total amount of $405,000 was $41,000 above the appropriation for the current year and $185,000 a live estimates of the budget bureau. The increase of $185,000 was on account of the proposed appropriation for the new building for the medical department. Unauthorized by Law Representative Byrnes argued that the appropriation was not authorized by law and that the item for the new medical school was new legislation on an appropriation bill and that the budget bureau had not estimated for it. There is little doubt, however, that the Senate will restore most of the items stricken from the bill and that the two houses will agree in conference to the appropriation as was the case last year.

Two Men Dead In Gun Duel In Carnegie Months of animosity between two men resulfed in the fatal shooting of both in a rooming house at 18 Arch street here Monday. In a revolver dual, following an argument, they shot each other to death, thus ending an old feud, of which it is said the favor of a woman is the underlying cause. The dead are Daniel Anderson, aged 40, of North street, Carnegie, and Adam Gladden, aged 50, a barber of Locust street, Carnegie. Both bodies were taken to the county morgue. An investigation-by Carnegie police revealed that the men had attended a party in the rooming house, but no evidence of involvement in the attack was found. Anderson and Gladden left about £250 a man. Fire at Same Time Renewing an old feud, according to police, the men both produced revolvers and pulled the trigger at the same time. Neighbors notified police, who found Anderson lying in a front room. Gladden, mortally wounded, staggered out the front door and was seen to walk around the side of the house. Investigators at first believed he had escaped, but about two hours after the shooting he was found lying face downward in the basement of the dwelling. The morgue ambulance was en route to Pittsburgh. Anderson's kitty was notified the morgue that Gladden was dead. A search of the clothes worn by the men disclosed many bullet holes. In the room where the shooting occurred two pistols were found. Appointed Receivers For D. C. Bank WASHINGTON, D. G., Dec. 11—Attorneys Charles H. Houston and Augustus W.

EWO New England Quota For Big Drive $365,000 Dr. Gregg of Hampton and Dr. Moton of Tuskegee Open Campaign With Speeches. By FRANK P. CHISHOLM BOSTON, Mass., Dec. 11.

South More Just to Negro South here "A few years ago I did not expect to live to see the Negro race treated with so much will in the South as the Negro there extends to him today" said Dr. Moton, adding: "I thank God for what Hampton and Tuskegee are doing today to help create that mutual good-will. The generality of white Southerners have a real love for the Negro race and the Negros in turn have a reciprocal affection for the average white Southerner. Dr. Moton paid high tribute to a number of particularly liberal givers to Hampton and Tuskegee, including Julius Rosenwald of Chicago, who has given $3,000,000 and is spending $1,000,000 a year in building school houses for Negroes throughout the South, and the late Miss Anna Dr. Jeanes of Philadelphia, who have large sums to provide school schools for Negroes and girls in the counties districts of the South. Dr. Gregg's Address "We aim at education," said Dr. Gregg, "not alone of the Negroes, but of all the people. We want to re-enlighten the white people of this country as to the worth of the Negro. We must show that Democracy and Christianity are equal to the test of this racial question. The training of these two institutions for which we seek additional endowment is to be one in honesty and useful to the re-enlighten the communities we have been legally freed, but they have not yet attained that wider freedom of the spirit, and we are all bound in honor to see that they get it." Dr. Francis G. Peabody of Harvard said: "As the race advances, schooling for its leadership, for its professional and business men and women, for its educators and scientists must advance."

Has 110 Wives, Late Census Total Shows CAPETOWN, South Africa, Dec. 11. - Latest census reports reveal that there are men with 51, 79 and 110 wives. The man with the largest household, has 79 wives, 134 sons and 59 daughters. Perry's Press Agent Called to Account (Continued From First Page) of money-lenders. A man worth $8,000,000, it is said, would hardly have to bow-ow $400,000. ...The truth of the whole situation, it is thought, is far from the state of facts reported in "The World" article. Many Negroes we first-hand knowledge; that Heman Perry not worth $8,000,000, and it seems unfair to Dr. Moton and Mr. Rosenwald, the phi *nitropil*; t. make it appear to the public that: Mr. Rosenwald was inducted by Dr. Moton to lend a man worth $8,000,000 the small sum of $400,000. Negroes of the country are reported to be very much worked up over the article in "The World," and it is stated that an exact report of the whole transaction is soon to be given to it. people of the country so they will understand why Dr. Moton and Mr. Rosenwald came to the rescue of the situation in lanta, Ga. It is thought that Dr. Moton was moved to the heid because he did not want to see the thousands of innocent investors littered in trin' out of their hard-earned money by the many wild-cat schemes which Perry has launched during the last 10 years. It is said that this view is the more sensible view than the one presented in "The World" article. But no one believes for a moment that Mr. Rosenwald would lend Heman Perry $400,000 as a philanthropic act! It was true that Perry was worth $8,000,000 because it would be Perry's money to be the philanthropist and have to their present embarrassing position. This view, it is claimed, is all the more probable because it is known that Perry made all of his reported $8,000,000 out of Standard Life and Perry's manipulations of Standard's money. It is hoped that Dr. Moton's program will be accepted by the directors of Standard Life and they will see to it that the investments of hard-working Negroes are given better protection and better management than Perry indicates they have done the race a most wonderful service, but his service would be cons'ered more secure if he could arrange some way to put Standard under a different management than it has enjoyed under Perry. It is said to be a general view that Perry means well in his efforts but will not accept proper advice at the proper time. Whether this be true or not the Negroes who have invested their money have suffered and Perry, or any other man, can more easily be sucker than can the interests of the whole group. It is thought that Dr. Moton will keep his hands on the reins of the business either directly, or indirectly until Standard is restored to the confidence of the investing public.

Charging that his wife has been unfaithful and naming two correspondents, Rev. Cyrus W. H. Briddell, alleged writer of a number of "poison pen letters" that stirred the little Kent Island to white heat more than two years ago, is asking the Circuit Court to grant him a divorce and the custody of two children. The court action follows, the return some time ago of Rev. Mr. Briddell from the Federal prison, where he has been serving an 18 months' term following his conviction of writing the letters. Co-respondents Named In his petition Rev. Mr. Briddlid states that his wife, Mrs. Raymond Briddlid has been guilty of urdue Briddlid with "a number of men, naming Charles Oscar Green and Alfred Dunn. Intimation that other irregularities will be disclosed at the trial is also made by the minister. The Briddlells were married in 1913 according to the petition and lived together in several places here in Maryland. They have two children. He also has 7, and Ex. F. age 26. He also asks the custody of the two children. Recalls Noted Case The petition recalls the noted case of the poison pen letters which created such a furore two years ago. At that time Rev. Mr. Briddell, a prominent young minister, was pastoring three A. M. E. churches on Kent Island. For a period of three years white women in the community received anonymous "poison pen" letters, filled with the most passionate and depraved details imaginable. Several fights and a near murder followed in the wake of these letters and the whole affair was a mystery and baffled the entire white community. Suspicion fell on various white men and husbands and relatives of the women who received the letters employed detectives to ferret the matter out. But no one for three years ever cast suspicion towards Rev. Briddell, who was well known, highly respected and generally liked by both white and colored people. Then like a bolt out of a clear sky, a government detective set a trap that caught the young minister in the act of mailing one of the letters here in Baltimore. Was Strange Case Just what prompted Rev. Briddell to write these notorious letters which rocked with vile and sordid sexual descriptions, presented a problem in human behaviour. His life was spottlessly clean and wholesome, according to all who knew him. He was a model father and a quiet dignified minister. His entire school record was blameless and even the women to whom the letters were written regarded him as an exceptionally courteous man, according to their testimony on the witness stand. Mr. submitted in court was the mute evidence his own handwriting of numerous letters written under the spell of ardent passion. Following a trial which created wide comment, Rev. Mr. Briddell was convicted and given a sentence of 18 months in the Federal prison. Sensation Is Unearthed In Divorce Case WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec 11. Through Attorney George E. C.

There is one child, Virginia Hunter, the wife of the defendant is living with the defendant and co-respondent at 335 Third Street, Southwest Mrs. Hunter asks for custody of the child. 'Hello Honey' Gets Common - Law - Wife A Beating; Mate Shot KANSAS CITY, Mo., Dec. 11 — Mason Butler, 331 Freeman, returned home Thanksgiving day about 4 p. m. and greeted the "Hello, Honey," of Freda Harris, his common-law wife, with a blow to the head. A minute later he lay dead with a bullet from Freda's gun in his body. This is the simple story of the tragedy told by Mrs. Harris at the Wyandotte County jail Friday. "Mason went away in the morning and returned about 4 o'clock. I was in the kitchen and heard him greet our company in the front room. I went forward to meet him calling out 'hello honey' and he struck me with his fist. I had taken a small gun from under my low and placed it at the pocket of my waist, which at that moment was lying across the bed. I simply reached for the gun and shot him." Mrs. Harris has two children by g' former marriage. She is 21 years of age. Masonic Lodge Wins Court Case WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 11—Justice Wendell P. Stafford has ordered Henry C. Scott, John H. T.

C. Matthews, director of the: colored section of the Repub- Hican National Campaiyn Committee, and by Honorable Robert L. Vann, Editor of The Pittsburgh Courier, and member of Chairman Butler's Board of Strategy. In his annual message to Congress ast week, President Coolidge took occasion to direct attention to the constitutional rights of the Colored People of America, emphasizing the face that “the choice of members of ‘the Congress should be extended to include appropriate representation of the respective parties at the ballot ‘hox and quality of representation on the various — registration boards wherever they exist.” This ‘means Protection in the South for Colored voters. Further, the President devotes a splendid paragraph tu emphasizing his attitude concerning -the matter of the constitutional rights of the Col- ered People of America. On, this question he says, “I firmly believe that it is better’ for all concerned that they (the colored people) should be cheerfully accorded their full con- stitutional rights and that they chould be protected from all thos Happenings In Louisville, Ky. ‘Miss Olivette Canady, Dernice Batts, Elnora Mcintyre, and.

ADDITIONAL CLUBS PAGE 8 Personals Personals Local Women Urge Cause of Mrs. Bethune Mrs. Mary McLeod Bethune of Daytona, Florida, has been in the city the past week working in the interest of the Daytona-Cookman Institute, of which she is principal. Her visit was cut short by illness, and she was away every evening, suffering from the disagreeable aftermath of the glove. Mrs. Bethune's physical condition, however, did not weaken her fervor or lessen her enthusiasm for the Institute. She was able to inspire a number of interested followers to work for the promotion of the school and the raising of funds for its maintenance and extension of program. The club was organized Tuesday evening at the residence of Mrs. Daisy E. Lampkin, in Webster avenue. Mrs. Bethune talked glowingly, "We need your help," she said. "Women in Pittsburgh can do it." Mrs. Mary McLeod Bethune believe in you; I know you will put the job over." And, they applauded their approval. History of the School. The history of the school reads like fiction: During the month of October, 1904, in a little rented cabin, with five little girls, a dollar and a half in capital, a vision of the future, and Daytona Normal and Industrial Institute for Negro Girls was established by Mary McLeed Bethune. The first payment of five dollars on the present site, then an old dumping ground, was raised by means of concerts and festivals, unimaginable because of the short time a clean, wholesome place upon which to build and is now looked upon as one of the most desirable sites in the City of Daytona. The following year, 1905, found the Institution placed upon a former building, which now houses the Institutes and Advisory Boards and the securing of a charter. The first five years of the Institution were years of prayer, increasing toil, and anxiety. Oftimes with little or no food the founder worked her, realize her vision. During the long years of toil, when imperative demands had to be met, friends came always in time to ward off a crisis, and the institution grew. Today the founder feels that difficulties and obstacles are but temporary, and with faith in God and humanity looks forward to a bright future for the growing institution and a steady growth and an ever-widening extension of the great work. As the institution grew it attracted state-wide attention, and later became known nationally. Men of national prominence became affiliated with it, serving on its board of trustees, and in 1922 this work was extended to the attention of the Board of Education for Negroes of the Methodist Episcopal Church, who, seeing in it an opportunity to build up in this state one of the greatest co-educational centers in the South, decided that Cookman institute, which was being built in 1922, could help put over the enlarged program for education in Florida. Cookman Institute was founded in 1872 by the Rev. Dr. S. B. Darnell. It was the first institution for the training of the carpenters, carpens founded in the State of Florida, a long time was the only school of its kind in the state. In point of service no other institution of its kind in Florida equals it. During its half century of service it has maintained its reputation as a spiritually, spiritually and intellectually for the young men and women who have come under its influence. In July of 1923, the Daytona Normal and Industrial Insti-* was taken under the auspices of the Methodist Episcopal Church Cookman Institute was merged with it, the institution thereupon becoming co-educational and the name being changed to Daytona-Cookman College Institute. She was accompanied on the trip by her secretary, Miss M. Williams. She was the house guest of Mrs. Lampkin during her stay.

Soon, two of the little ‘ones developed a cough which noth- ‘ing seemed to cure. “Swing low, sweet chariot, coming for to carry me home,” sang the tired m ther, rocking her feverish little one to put her to sleep, And her song was. answered, for tha’ night the chariot swung low indeed, and carried off Annabelle to a better land where she would never be sick any more. Tuberculosis had claimed one moro victim. + In making her neighborhood rounds, the visiting nurse from the Tuber- culosis League of Pittsburgh heard the sad story and stopped in to see |tk> mother. She found the home in ‘a filthy condition, as the poor mother was sick in bed, and the father was ou all day trying to get work. Jen- nie,a baby 19 months old, was crawl- inJ clothed in rags on the dirty floor. Her tiny ehest was torn by a racking cough. ° |_ The nurse washed mother and ‘baby, and tidied up the house;.then she called doetor, who found’ that the mother had peritonitis; she was sent to the South Side hospital where sh. made a splendid recovery. Little Jennie was found to bo susfering from a combination of ma'adies, she had whooping cough, rickets (caused iby improper food and not enough sun-light) the tuberculosis. She was igiven, home-nursing care by the | Pubereulosis League, . nd gained 14 pounds weight in two months. From ja puny, sickly baby refusing all nourishing food, she is now boune- ing, happy tot, eats well, and runs lall over the house trying.in her baby iway to “help “Zama.” The league has 114 colored cases on its reguiar visiting list, at least’ third of which are being vis- itee by a League nurse every other day; every day, six colored children attend the leaigue’s open air school; over 400 colored people were given free chest examination and -treated at the Tuberculosis League dispen- saries during the year. | ee \ OU OANA EE a o- fal. + Few, if any, 3 remedies’ can equal the value Of Pe-ru-na for ca- tarrh of the stomach. “At this season it is esti- }] mated that every third person is more or less troubled with this form } of catarrh | “BE READY CE 1 GEMS, Have the aie *s 3 es eee & inthe [3 e get House, | as _ Sem 7S) Everywhero |} OOS cae (Zee lablets\ 3 Pi SAL y Or. ae ce eAUiquidy eae ee ZY. ° sg 'Ser7nnn AID!” a 70) ; : Good W ill Cherel pao + 024 Pélows?

The clevens representing _ these schools-had reached the semi-finals by virtue of their football records during the past season, The real magnate which had drawn. the writ- er to Tech Field was the presence of a colored boy on the New Castle team by the name of Hill. ‘The Sunday papers had carried articles throughout the season xhere t's halfback, Hill: had run fromi 15 to 60 yards for touchdowns against varied opposition, the most notable of which was ‘a 53-yard jaunt through the famous “Marrikbe Tech eleven which eventually caused Marrisburg’s first defeat in two years. For thre years the writer has been following various colored stars on white teams to se them “strut their stuff." First we saw West play for Washington High against Wilkinsburg High; next we saw Pol- lard play in professional football; saw West he! defeat Carnegie Tech and play at New York against La- fayette white badly crippled; saw West get smothered at Pitt; saw Yelar play valiantly against’ New Castle last year; saw Walker and Mushaw against’ independent foot- hall.

STER AND BOLDEN RE-ELECTED-BLOUNT CENTER OF BIG FIGHT Owner May Be Dropped From National League — Many Important Items Worked Out—Next Joint Meeting to Be Held In Philadelphia. CHICAGO, Ill., Dec. 11—The Eastern Colored league and the National league held their annual session in Chicago gymnastox club, 3642 Grand Boulevard, Thursday, Dec. 4. National league opened a pre-meeting session at the centers of the American Giants the evening before and regular league session Thursday at 10 o'clock in the evening. So heated were some of the discussions that even super men were barred for the first day. Annual meeting at 2 o'clock day and on Friday both came together in a harmonious session, which was presided by Andrew Pube Foster as play baseball from September 15 on the co-oper-iv plan. This was to have been thrashed out the second day of the meeting but Mr. Blount was called to Detroit on urgent business. On the second day of the meeting the directors gav. Mr. Blount until January 1 to pay players or to present an affidavit signed by all his players that they agreed to his proposition. If after January 1 and the players have been paid, Mr. Blount is given ample time to get affidavit and players will have to return money given them. Refusal to comply with this order means that Mr. Blount will be dropped from the league. The league pennant was awarded to Kansas City and the club and the club owners congregated upon winning for the league the world series. The western body will meet again in St. Louis on January 31 and February 1 at which time the cities that will represent the league in the 1925 circuit will be named. Warner Jewell of Indianapolis, owner of the Jewell's A. B. C.'s deposited one thousand dollars with the directors for a franchise in Indianapolis. He wants to re-establish this original A. B. C.'s who dropped c. t of the league last summer. The league made it plainly understood that it was not the franchise that they were seeking but, men able financially to operate a club. The league ordered the president to proceed to Indianapolis before January 31 and to investigate the stock owners in the newly proposed proposition. The men representing the Western league were Capt. Joe Bush of Birmingham Black Barons, John T. Blount of the Detroit Stars, R. C. Lewis of Memphis, Andrew Rule Foster of the American Giants and the Cuban Stars (by proxy), Dr. George B. Keyes and S. Brown, the St. Louis Stars and John L. Wilkerson and Q. J. Glmore, Kansas City Monarchs. At the meeting of the two league Eastern territory is confined to east of Buffalo and Pittsburgh to the Atlantic ocean. The Western league west of Buffalo and Pittsburgh to the Pacific ocean. The world series will be played each year under the same arrangements as last year—that is, same as the major league world series. The second and third place clubs will share in the receipts. No owner or stockholder of any club contending can sit on the commission, which is made up of two men from each league. Both organizations gave a rising vote of thanks to the newspapers for their part in the last world series. Philadelphia was chosen as the city in which both leagues will hold their annual session next year. The player limit was set at 20 men. The question of reduction of salaries was the biggest problem. No definite settlement was made. Money owed owners by players who jumped contracts will be made good through owners of clubs where in players are now listed. All players are property of clubs they finished 1981 season with. A banquet was tendered the visiting delegates at the Appomattox club Friday night, at which Alberman Robt. R. Jackson acted as tastemaster. Speeches were made by different owners of bobs in the two leagues. Attorney Walter Farmar is legal representative Neer. National league. There were a number of trades suggested, but none consummated between the East and the West. The only trade made during the meeting was between the American Giants and the Birmingham club, Roth, a catcher, going to the Southern club McCall, a pitcher. In all, the meeting was peaceful. Much has been accomplished and the future of colored baseball has a brighter outlook than ever before in its history. Keenan of New York, Spedden and Rossister of Baltimore, Nat Strong of New York and J. L. Wilkerson are all white men. Strong has operated in New York for years, at has Keenan. Rossister and Spedden signed Beckwith as man of the Baltimore club for the Eastern League proceeded annual meeting at 2 o'clock day and on Friday both together in a harmonious formation, which was presided by Andrew Rube Foster as Eastern League wound up its mission with the re-election Baden of Darby, Pa., as of the commission to run the.

Edgar Thomson And Homestead To Meet In Titular Battle Rivalling the interest that used to be manifest when the famous Loendi and Coffey clubs were wont to wage their annual tilts, the battle between the Homestead Community five and the Edgar Thomson Community team at the Edgar Thomson gymnasium on next Wednesday evening, December 17, promises to eclipse any amateur floor game of recent years. Both clubs are members of the Carnegie (Steel Works League, and are in a tie for first place, neither club having been defeated this season. On the Homestead team are such players as Betts, Steiner, Desey, and others, while the Edgar Thomson team appear the names of Yonkers, Fleming, Neveiles, Williams, Ashby and Pratt. The game is arousing untold interest in both borough towns, and a packed house will doubtless witness the game. The City Mills five and the Duquesne Club will play in the preliminary game. An additional feature to whet up the enthusiasm will be the appearance of two bands from the rival towns to aid in the cheering for their favorites. Billy Page and his orchestra will play the music for the dance, which is scheduled to start promptly at 9 p. m. The first game will get under at 7 p. m. Earl Johnson is handling the affair.

He writes us about the wonderful spurt made by the Suburbanites after they got off to a bad start, as duly chronicled in these columns. They lost their first four games and then won seven in a row, going into first place for a short time. Sunday they beat Almendares, 9-8, in the morning, but were shaggedtered in the post meridian encounter, 17-5. By now Miller and Brown, the cowboy battery of the American Giants and our own Redi'Ryan have joined up with S. C. Exclusive of that trio the team consists of Cason, Rojo and Morin, catchers, Brown, Holland, Streeter, Moore and Mendez, pitchers, Parreda, manager Warfield, Marcelle and Bobby Williams, infielders; Stearns, Montvelo, Oms and Gardner, outfielders. NEXT WE HAVE WITH US THOMAS C. HANKLEY of Pittsburgh. Poe Ay, Caleb old friend, your letter was one of the best things we have seen for many a day. We are glad that you and all the boys up and down the street of a Thousand Curves enjoy our dope. And if you think we have forgotten how to play pool come down east here and we'll prove you are wrong. And know that the Column is reliable in its information. Prejudice sways us neither for nor against anyone. Sometimes our judgment may be faulty, but whoever expects a critic to be infallible? AND, FROM OUT WHERE THE WEST BEGINS, word comes from Berlin White. He is now in West Baden, resting up and working out (what a paradox, what a paradox!) for the trip south next month. Whitie will once more be a fixture in the Cocoonat League. Except for a brief trip to his home in Logansport and another to Chicago he will be at the Spa till train time for Palm Beach. His questions for Dismukes have already been forwarded to that young man. THE SIMPLE SENEGALESE HAD A BACKSET last week when Jack Burke of Pittsburgh was given the judges' decision over him in Brooklyn. The fight went 12 rounds, the limit. NOW WE KNOW WHY TEXAS BREEDS so many good ball players. George W. Johnson, the Hilldale speedboy, fanned with us for an hour or so the other day. George declares that he used to play ball on moonlight nights in San 'tone, along the Rio Pecos and in the Chanelle country. That's how popular baseball is in his country. He vows that the magnates are overlooking a bet when they fail to send scouts through that section because there are more promising baseball players down there than there are Eyetalians in South Philadelphia. Just to show the wiseaces that he knows what he is talking about he submitted an All-Texas team for the consideration of the 53,000 readers of the Column. Here it is: Santop, Mackey, Gee, Burnett, Jim Brown, catchers; Joe Williams, Dave Brown, Hubbard, McClure, W. Bell, C. Bell, Cooper (Detroit), pitchers; Eddie Douglass, Grant, Hudseth, first baseman; Day, second; Goodrich, Hill, Blackmon (deceased), third; Chaney White, George Johnson, Washington, Holloway, Jones, outfielders. Folks, that would be a strong team in anyone's league. ONE OF THE BEST SCHOOLBOY ATHLETES in Philly is Sheppard of the Pennsylvania Institute for the Deaf. He was considered the greatest offensive football back in the city and he was no slouch on the defense, either. He has been put on several All-Scholastic teams. OSCAR CHARLESTON HAS NOT HIT his stride in Cuba yet, but he will come through yet. The natives are still raving over the fielding prowess of Richard, the Lundy and Marcelle. King Tut still gets his regular hits and is leading Almendares with the stick. George Johnson has been offered a berth by Miguel Gonzales of the Havana Club, but has not yet decided to go to the island. Stars you know are batting thusly: Cueto, .404, Oms, .400, Lloyd, .318, Marcelle, .345, Mackey, .345, Lundy, .333, Warfield, .302, Gardiner, .283, Stearnes, .280, Charleston, .241, Chacon, .222. The rest of the gang are under .200 at this time. THERE SEEMED TO BE A CONSPIRACY OF SILENCE among the merry men who pose as authority in the world of collegiate football. Every mother's son of them failed to make copy of the fact that Deck McLean had switched from Lincoln to Howard. We were not expected to comment on the subject, since we have been told that we do not know anything about "colored" football. Fortunately, we can plead guilty, as indicted. GEORGE K. O. CHANEY, THE CLOUT 'EM DEAD KING of Baltimore, is weeping for his 100th knockout and complains that none will accommodate him. Johnny Mosely, sometime of Pittsburgh and Chester, and now of Atlantic City, speaks in rebellait. He says that he cannot get a battle with the Maryland mittman. His work against Sailor Freedman, Ray Mitchell and others show that he would be no pushover for Chaney. He is willing-to-fight him on a percentage, winner take all or what have you. Sammy Harris might with profit listen to his plea.

U. in Thirteen Games. By F. A. Walker ATLANTA, Ga., Dec. 6—Seventy-five hundred people swarmed into Ponce De Leon park here today to witness the post-season clash between Morehouse College and Atlanta University. It was a motley crowd. There were the two huge student bodies of each institution garbed and arrayed in all the splendor of the Crinson and Gray of Atlanta and the Maroon and White of Morehouse. There were the two alumni; there were members of the Caucasian race and they composed nearly fifty per cent of the attendance; there were those bent on seeing the game despite the fact that they lacked the necessary funds. And all of this interest was centered about the fact that two ancient rivals were meeting once more on the gridiron after a period of cessation of athletic activity which began in 1921. One of these rivals had been victorious in the past 12 games between them on the gridiron and held the crown of Atlanta colleges and, oftentimes of the South. The other had risen to dizzy heights in Southern football since 1922, coming up from seeming obscurity to Southeastern Champions of 1922 under the masterful coaching of their mentor, Walter H. Aiken. It was to be a decisive battle for the Atlanta crown—and tonight the Morehouse Tiger lies dethroned while the Crimson Hurricane subsides its avalanche of gridiron fury enough to allow the Crimson and Gray banner of Atlanta University to float proudly in the breeze. It was Homecoming Day for both schools—and they came! From 'up East' and 'down East'; from as far West as Golden California; from all parts of the South they came, and tonight, even as we write, Atlanta Alumni are rejoicing and are happy over what they had waited for nearly 20 years, all still remaining a firm fixture in the minds of Atlanta Alumni Tonight is an historic sheet in the record of Atlanta University. It was a great day for graduating players of both schools. Captain Louis Irving of Morehouse, oft times All-Southern choice, at tackle, fought nobly in the face of defeat and as he finishes next June he leaves an undying record at Morehouse. Joseph Pierce, Atlanta halfback and senior, got a few minutes' taste of the fray. Henry Lang, Atlanta quarter, All-Southeastern selection for end in 1922, played his last game today. John L. Leake, All-Southern center realized of greatest success and will lead his team to Mater happy. Lawrence Perry, Atlanta half-back, gave his final services to his Alma Mater on the gridiron. F. A. "Tiny Red" Walker, Atlanta quarter. All-Southeastern quarter for 1922 and mentioned as the smallest man in Southern football, fought his last fight for Atlanta.

J. Long, met the Tuskegee Tigers, champions of Southeast, headed by Coach Abbott in an effort to determine the champions of the entire South. The Tuskegee Tigers, who were the favorite win were shown on the defensive side of the game. The teams battled to a 0-to-0 tie. Paul Quinn looms as the myside eleven of the South. Before 1,500 colored and white enthusiastic fans Paul Quinn demonstrated that numbers do not always spell victory. Tuskegee, one of the leading schools for the Industrial Education of Negro Youths, journeyed from Alabama with thirty warriors to Waco, Texas, with the expectations of adding Paul Quinn's skin to her long dress during the 1944 season. Her team was instead of the usual lop-sided scores as a result of her terrific drives a goose egg was donated by the Paul Quinnites with compliments. Paul Quinn until 1921 was never heard of in the athletic world. It was in the said year that Coach Long, brother of Coach Long at Paul Quinn, now at Wiley College, undertook the task to mold and shape the crude material in suitable condition to be a target for the opposition, but in 1922 this group representing the Tigers swept through the course of being championed of the being champions. Coach H. L. Long the Wonder Coach Coach H. J. Long the Wonder Coach Coach Long, veteran coach and student of Zuppke, of the Uni- versity of Illinois, has the distin- ction of being the greatest coach in the Southwest conference. With only about 300 students inspiring and cheering him he has the remarkable record of having only one defeat against him in two years. He is a model coach, who does not resort to forceful tactics to obtain results. He is understood by his players, and gets results.

Look For Man Left Fortune By Relative Government Offers Work To Printers Twelve Race Men Hold Lucrative Positions Five Youths Get Start. (Special to The Pittsburgh Courier) (AP) -- THE PITTSTURG COURT WASHINGTON, D. C.—Printers, throughout the country, as well as boys who plan to become apprentices for training in the printers' trade, would do well to examine into the advantages attending employment at the Government Printing Office at Washington. The present ad of this vast plant is Mr. Geo. H. Carter, who has appointed five colored boys as apprentices, and under whose administration 12 colored employees hold very lucrative positions. The general wage scale has increased more than 100 per cent during the past 20 years, and under the present administration compositors have been advanced to $7.60 for a day of eight hours, and typing the machine operator, for $8.40 with 15 percent credit for night work and 50 per cent for overtime, so that a full-fledged printer may receive from $2,500 to $3,000 annually. Working conditions have improved in the Government Printing Office in proportion to the increased rates of compensation. The present Public Printer has provided a cafeteria, which meets a vital need of the employees by enabling them to secure a liberal variety of well cooked food at reasonable prices. There is also a roof garden, where, during recess from labor, the workers may enjoy fresh air and exercise without exposure to the weather elements. Competitive examinations are held in all the large cities throughout the land, from time to time, for appointments to the Government Printing Office. Inquiries and applications for permission to participate in these examinations should be addressed to the United States Civil Service Commission, Washington, D.C., or to a local branch office of the commission. Lewis H. Douglass, son of Fredrick Douglass, was the first colored appointee to the Government Printing Office. Since that time, a half century ago, the race has been continually represented, until today we find such excellent citizens as E. C. Cain, W. D. Clarkson, W. T. Menar', W. C. Robinson, E. H. Fisher, H. W. Davis, W. C. Peace, Bernardine Smith, G. W. Knox, A. B. Lughes, C. W. Williams, Capt. John E. Smith and G. W. Shead, the three last named being typesetting machine operators.

Knocked Her Down Dry-eyed, her pretty brown face drawn a little from the lonely Troublesgiving in the Wyandotte County, Mrs. Webb talked freely Friday of the tragedy. "Wednesday, after I finished preparing supper, I lay down across my bed for a minute's before my husband came home. I had worked hard, cooking a lunch for my brother-in-law, George Webb, to take hunting with him Thanksgiving day. "Tom came in about 5:30 and showed plainly he had been drinking. He cursed me and insisted I put supper on the table, although his mother offered to do so. When he saw the duck I had roasted for George's lunch and the pies I had made, he became furious and startled an argument which ended in him knowing me across my bed and jumping on top of me, hammering with his fists. Went for Gun "His mother pulled him off me, and cursing and declaring that George couldn't live on him another minute, he left the house. "I was in the kitchen at the range when the door at my back flew open and Tom stood there with a gun pointed at me. I've got you now,' he said, but quick as I could I reached over and twisted the gun from his hand. His mother and George grabbed me and Tom reached into the cabinet drawer where the kitchen knives were, cursing all the while and saying, 'I'm going to kill you anyway.' As he drew back his hand to strike I shot twice, one bullet hitting him and one going into the ceiling." Examination of the body by the doctor revealed the dead man had only $1.55 on his person, despite the fact he had been paid $30 at the stockyards a few hours before.

"My first introduction to the race problem," he continued, "was in the Atlanta riot on September 7, 1906. I saw eighteen men killed and my friend would have been wiped out had it not been for a band of colored men who fired on the mob." Walter Francis White, 30, was born in Atlanta and lived there until eight years ago, when he came north to work for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, of which he is now assistant secretary. In his work as investigator for the association he has "covered" thirty-six lynchings, been in three mobs and shot at twice. Central City, Ga., the name of the town in his story, is a composite of three towns he had in mind when writing. Kenneth Harper, chief figure of the story, is a composite of three of his friends.

White New "Little Theatre"For Race People NEW YORK, N. Y., Dec. 11.—(By A. N. P.)—Out in Corona, a Long Island suburb of New York, there is a settlement of unusually high type of Negroes, the majority of whom are home owners. One of the group is Francis H. Wilson, the author of about a dozen playlets and sketches, a one-time member of the cast of "Justice," the first mixed dramatic production presented in the higher play circles of the city. He asv also one of the cast of the much discussed "All God's Chillun" presented by the Provincetown Players in t. season with Paul Robeson as the star. Since retiring with that production Wilson has become the director of the Aldridge Players, a group of colored players, with a playhouse that seats a hundred and fifteen people. The group has been organized for three seasons and is named in honor of Ira Aldridge, the first Negro actor of the country, who went to England as a star about 1840. The group has the active support of local churches and fraternities. In March they will present The Mirage, by M. P. P. Baird, and two playlets, "Away With It" and "The Good Sister Jones," by Frank Wilson. with his wife at the home of Miss Mary White Ovington at Great Barrington, Mass., in September. 1922. Then came the long search for a publisher. "The publishers wanted me to tone it down and not make it so radical," he said, "but I was determined not to do it. I had written what I had actually seen, what I knew was true, and I decided if it couldn't be published that way I wouldn't publish it at all." It is said that one publisher asked Irvin S. Cobb, author of "J. Polindexter, Colored," to read and criticize it, and that ample native of Paducah, Ky., threw up his hands in holy horror and said "Never!" Then Henry I. Mencken, editor of The American Mercury (from Maryland) and Carl Van Doren were invited to read and criticize it, and both were enthusiastically favorable. Mr. Knopf agreed to accept it without any changes and has consistently stood his ground, although he has been terrifically bombarded and denounced by the South. Publishers told Mr. White: "We can't publish books bringing out your side of the case because white people don't buy them and colored people won't." Says Mr. White; "I am glad to state that colored people certainly ARE buying this book." Mr. White is a graduate of Atlantic University. Mrs. Leah Gladys Whittier graduated from N.Y. Three years ago.

TEN Producer Can Succeed Only With Our Aid Tells of Struggles and Hurtful Criticism of Biased Writers Concerning "Birthright." NEW YORK, Dec. 11—Unless one has some connection with the actual production of photo plays, it is impossible fully to recognize the tremendous scope which the motion picture embraces. The completed picture is a miniature replica of life, and all the varied forms which help to make life so complex, the intricate studies and problems of human nature, all enter into the physical makeup of the most lowly photo play. The mastery, therefore, of the art of production, for indeed it is an art, is no small attachment, and success can only be assured when assisted by the most active encouragement and financial backing. The colored producer has dared to step into a world which has hitherto remained closed to him. His entrance into this world is difficult, is he difficult. He limited in his themes, in obtaining casts that present genuine ability, and in his financial resources. He requires encouragement and assistance. He is the new-born babo who must be fondled until he can stand on his own feet, and if the race has any pride in presenting its own achievements in this field, it behooves it to interest itself, and morally encourage such efforts. I do not wish anyone to construe this as a request for the suppression of criticism. Honest, intelligent criticism is essential to gry effort. The producer who has confidence in his ideals, solicits constructive criticism. But he also asks fairness, and fairness in criticism demands a familiarity with the MAE MURRAY, AND A SCENE FROM "CIRCE THE ENCHANTRESS" COMING TO ELMORE NEXT WEEK aims of the producer, and a knowledge of the circumstances_ under which his efforts were materialized. Sissle And Clarence R. Whyte Addresses Musicals I have been informed that my last production, "Birthright," has occasioned much adverse criticism, during its exhibition in Philadelphia. Newspapermen have denounced me as a colored Judaism, merely because they were either unaware of my criticism or unaware of them. What then, are my aims, to which such critics have taken exception? I have always tried to make my photophys present the truth, to lay before the race a cross section of its own life, to view the colored heart from close range. My results might have been narrow at times, duo perhaps to certain limited situations, which I endeavored to portray, but in those limited situations, the truth was the predominant characteristic. It is only by presenting those portions of the race portrayed in my pictures, in the light and background of their true state, that we can raise our people to greater heights.

The recognition of our true situation, will read in itself as a stimulus for self-adjudement. It is thus ideals that I have injected into my pictures, and which are now being criticized. Possibly my aims have been misunderstood, but criticism arising from such misunderstanding, only doubles the already overburdening labors of the colored producer. If I have been retarded by the unjust criticism from my own race, it has been amply made up by the aid of the Royal Theatre, which from the very beginning, has encouraged the production of colored photoplays, and in the face of burning criticism, has continued to foster my ains, and help place my organization on a strong footing. It is only by constructive criticism, arising from an intelligent understanding of the real problem, however, that the colored producer can succeed in his efforts, and produce a product that will be a credit to the race, but on a par with those of the white producer—(Signed) Oscar Micheaux.

BY SA A Novel of the Rea Full of Thrilling (Continued From Last Week) BY SANCTION OF LAW A Novel of the Race Problem Full of Thrilling Situations BY JOSHUA H. JONES JR BUT, Dad, you don't know her. She's too big hearted to permit such a condition. Besides we're not marrying the races or the families of each other. I marry her. She marries me." "Yes, you've got to live in some community. You'll be isolated on either hand. You don't know the pride of races as I do, nor pride of families." "I yet know that I'm of both races." "Yes, but prejudice and narrowness can show themselves in so many bitterly hurtful ways to sensitive souls. I know. I've been through it all. So has your mother. My truman. I strongly advise against it. You're of age and I can't command you, else I'd forbid it. I predict for you, though, if you persist in your fool-hardy det, misery and failure—And these things in you, my first born, will bring an old man's heart in sorrow to the grave. "Oh, Truman! Truman, my first born, my pride! Don't wrench my heartstrings till I fall into my grave a broken man. Don't do this monstrously rash thing. Give up this foolish love. Be a man and master yourself." "Yes, but of honor? What about my honor—my pledged and sacred word?" he asked. "There are rights above such honor or as you cling to," stated the father. "There is no honor in rashness that would wreck many lives." "What about breaking the heart of the girl who's trusted you with her love—her happiness?" Bennet asked. "Her love, with her southern slave-holding background can't but be passion; her happiness in you but visionary. There is no real love there. When passion dies her love will die. The elder man prophesied. "Never. Her heart's too simple and honest. I have her happiness in my keeping. Let her fail me if she will. I'll not fail her nor myself. Not if all hell prevails," Truman protested. "When you speak as you do I can't believe you ever knew love. You married for convenience and have lived a sham life; outwardly honorable, but inwardly hollow." "Tut-tut-tut, Boy. Let's not quarrel. Hasty words only mean sorrow and regret," the elder Bennet ended, walking away. Father and son held no further talks on the subject, each seeming to avoid the topic. At each mail, however, when letters would be received by Truman, in a handwriting all had come to know, the elder Bennet would watch his son reading eagerly the written words, see the fighting on the face and the happiness for the remainder of the day and shake his head sadly. Mrs. Bennet, though told by her husband, gave no outward appearance of knowing the state of affairs. She sensed in her woman's way, however, the depth of her son's regard for the girl and pitied him at the same time that she hoped the girl would prove as loyal as she knew Truman would be. Mrs. Bennet's motherly understanding was shown a few days following when there was no letter. As she passed his chair at the breakfast table, she allowed her hand to rest for a moment on his shoulder. Truman was gloom while his sister teased him about the girl and the letter she had sent peacefully. At the third morning mall was received, the elder man was tempted to utter an "I told you so," but a warning look from the mother prevented him. The sister also out of consideration began to dislike the girl who did not write to her brother when he had been expecting and had been receiving daily communications. Days lengthened into more than a week when on the morning of the tenth day when no letter had been YOUNG BLOOD How I Keep Feeling Young and Vigorous at Near Sixty. "I am near 60 years, but I feel as young as I did at 30. I take a cupful of Bulgarian Tea once or twice a week. It keeps me healthy and strong and makes me feel young again," said H. H.

Just pay your mail man. received in answer to repeated telegraph messages, Truman announced, at breakfast, that he was going away. The elder Bennett's head bowed, as he muttered, "I know it." Mrs. Bennet's eyes filmed with tears though she gave no evidence of her feeling. Bennet's packing was hastily done and when ready to leave he kissed his mother. As he did so, she murmured, in his ear: "God keep you from harm, my boy—and bring her back to us." For response, Truman gave her a bear hug and a resounding kiss. When he parted with his father at the station just as the train was pulling out, the two gripped hands in man-to-man fashion, the man stood稳坐, and hastily into the eye of his elder. "Whatever happens, Boy, remember we are yours. Play fair. Take care of yourself and come back as soon as possible. You're going into the devil's own country. God keep you safely." CHAPTER XVII Dr. Tansey, when he returned to his office after the encounter with Professor Armstrong began to make readily his own affairs preparatory to departing for the south on his mission of science, and his study of malignant forms of yellow fever and typhoid. When all his affairs were placed in order he boarded a train for New York, from which place he set out by boat for Charleston, South Carolina, his first stopping place. His shop had been out two days before he went to the city to his inability to withstand the effects of seasickness. No matter how many times he had taken trips he always was seasick the first two days out. Because of this illness he failed to learn that another passenger, with whom he was acquainted was also taking the trip. This was Truman Bannet. In mid afternoon on the third day out Dr. Tansey felt able to forsake his stateroom for a little time on deck and climbed the saloon stairs. The effort was a struggle to him, in his weakened state, but he nanny made the distance and was resting his hands on the railpost to steady himself as well as to find a location unengaged when he almost lost the strength of his legs and sank down the stairs. He guzzled across the deck straight ahead of Truman's anne. Bennett could not believe his eyes for a moment; when he realized it was the Doctor he sprang across the deck in two leaps and was just in time to save the physician from falling. The latter's face had gone pale with surprise and pleasure. "Dr. Tansey," Bennet exclaimed wringing the hand he had clapped. "Well, Bennet," the other returned. "You're the last man I expected to see on this boat. What are you going south for?" "I'll ask the same of you, Doctor? Where are you bound? Jove, this is a treat." "I'm bound on a scientific mission. I suppose you'll say the same thing. I'll bet I can guess, though, as an after thought. "I thought you were cured of that blow on the head you got last fall. Too bad! Too bad! My surgery is getting way off. I thought I had you cured." Doth men laughed happily, as Truman piloted the other to a seat at his side of the ship. After Bennet had seen that the doctor was comfortable he also took a seat. "Have a cigar," said Dr. Tansey, tendering Bennet the case as he took one himself. "No, thank you. Don't smoke." "This is off-season now. You won't be breaking training by smoking. I won't tell the coach," chafed the doctor: "You know I never smoked," Bennet replied back. "No, I don't know anything to it. But it this way, I never caught you smoking. How that." The two men laughed heartily again. Doctor Tansy was happy as a boy. He was very fond of Bennet, in his own way. "Where's the young woman."

"Foolish question. Do you think I deserve the girl I loved?" "I beg pardon, Old Boy. I wanted to be sure. You're either a fool or you've got the nerve of ten brass monkeys. No fool like a young lover," added the doctor, paraphrasing the old saw. "Know anybody down here?" "Not a soul that I'm aware of." "Well, you'll have to be very careful. Tieses people are very funny. They're very touchy on the race question. So, talk but little. Mind your own business." After a considerable pause—What you need is a guardian angel—or a keeper—You'll go along. I guess.

RWELVE Faculty of Howard University Urges Federalization Pending Cramton Bill Would Appropriate $406,000 For Howard University. [Special to The Pittsburgh Courier] Bx. WALTER J. SINGLETON WASHINGTON, D. C. Dec. 13. Federalization of Howard University, under the Cramton bill, pending in Congress, is the subject of extensive among alumni, faculty and administrative forces of this institution. A statement made by a prominent alumni at recent reunion on the campus that influential members of Congress no longer could continue the annual fight for the Howard appropriation has brought the faculty almost solidly in favor of federalizing the institution. E. P. Davls, chairman of the committee of the faculty on salaries, and Dean Kelly Miller, heading a committee on salary increases, have sent several memorials to the board of trustees for an adequate salary bale. Most of the professors at the university are paid less than high school teachers. The faculty maintains that increases which should increase their salaries are expended for clerical help. The Cramton bill, voted on by the Faculty, with a few minor modifications, is almost unanimously supported. It is contended that this measure represents the only way to save the university, which is seriously threatened by failure of its appropriation this year. The supply bill, which came up in Congress yesterday, includes $406,000 for Howard University. This proposed appropriation is $41,000 more than that fee the current year and $185,000 more than the amount recommended in the estimates. Washington Called "Mecca for Negro Race" Representative B. G. Lowrey (Democrat), of Mississippi, yesterday in his annual attack against appropriations in the Interior bill for Howard University, asked: "Have we the right to make our national capital a mecca for the Negro race." Mr. Lowrey said he "wants to do justice," but he felt that every time legislation is passed tending to attack the nation, "we are doing our nation wrong, our capital wrong and the Negro race wrong."

The committee headed by Mr. W. Eugene Scott called upon Attorney John L. Hughes, prominent lawyer of this city, whose statements in court in last month had been instructed to have been written to Hughes described the existence of a trust agreement between Corrothers and himself either by Dr. Corrothers wanted to collect the fees set by Hughes in cases which were sent to him by the trustees.

The Williams case would have beer included in this statement. The committee found that there was no grievance against authorities to have sold Corrothers and can see a move to injure his character, influence, and standing in the state. Holding as he does a large influence among his people in Newark and exerting that influence amon them toward independent action in the political field it was readily apparent to him that he should be done to curb his activities. A "frame-up" was resorted to. Attorney Hughes stated that he will go before the prosecutor of the county and state these facts. This will completely exorcate Dr. Corrothers and this charge. He also states that after such is done he will explain through the columns of the press his version of the matter. NEW BEDFORD, MASS.

Whatever may be said to the contrary, the growing understanding between the races as practiced by the sane element of both groups is bearing abundant fruit. Our greatest need is understanding. Our development shows that the better we understand each other the easier it is to share the common blessings of the world. Imagine a Duke, fifty years ago, thinking in terms of Negroes to the extent of four million dollars for their care, protection and development! And yet, our journals, North and South, are carrying this week, an account of the creation of a trust of forty million by one Mr. James B. Duke, of water power fane, which trust is for educational purposes among the white and blacks of North and South Carolina. More than that; the trust is created by Mr. Duke because he desires to see the people of North and South Carolina, especially develop socially as well and economically. In fact, Mr. Duke says as much. He has developed a wonderful water power industry for the South. He has seen the communities improve economically. He sees, also, the need of educational advancement for those same communities. He has answered the demand to the extent of his financial holdings. His generous provision is simply magnanimous. But, there is present, above the financial provision, glaring evidence of a heart filled with understanding. Mr. Duke understands that Negroes as well as whites constitute a part of the South. He appreciates that orphans are subjected alike to the preying forces of selfishness. He appreciates that a Negro vagrant keeps down the community as well as does a white pauper. He has set aside about four million for Negro and white orphans of the two Carolinas. All this is done to help mankind,—not white mankind above any other,—but mankind generally. And all because Mr. Duke has come to understand that nations advance more rapidly and permanently when they advance abreast, with every group up and no one particular group down. It is this understanding of things that dictated the trust for the little Negro orphans as well as for the whites. Thanks to Mr. Duke for his philanthropy. Thanks to the sane thinking Negroes of the country who are willing to labor patiently for the more lasting blessings that come with the tedious development of every people rather than lose ground by playing to an ignorant gallery by the use of smart phrases and unsound programs. As we understand each other better, we shall find more Dukes rising up to help the great cause of human development. Nor does Mr. Duke bear his well earned encomiums alone. Mr. George Eastman of Kodak fame has absorbed the meaning of this same understanding. He has just distributed for educational purposes fifteen million. His generosity extends even unto the much talked of Negro. To Tuskegee, Mr. Eastman gives one million, and the same amount to Hampton Institute. Surely, we can not be mistaken when we admonish our group that the best solution of human problems is human understanding. Our daily papers are telling us of the hundreds of people, whites, who are storming the White House for jobs under the Coolidge administration. Of course, this is nothing new. Every national election produces a new alignment, and after the election, there are job seekers of every class and caliber. Most of the jobs in this country go to the white people. There are a few, a very few, that fall to Negroes, after the usual fight to a finish. The jobs given Negroes do not represent the Negro vote as nearly as the jobs given the whites represent the white vote. But, as poorly represented as we are in the various places, there are a few Negroes who seem to think it a crime if we are given even a much reduced representation in office. From many quarters, we hear that jobs are being sought by this "gang" and that "crowd" of Negroes. We resent the vulgarity, but admit that jobs are being sought by Negroes for Negroes. The whites are "storming the White House" for jobs. We see accounts of the crowds visiting the President every day. The white Press says nothing about the "gangs" and "crowds" seeking jobs. White people seem to know that the government employees ladies and gentlemen to perform the various functions of the National government. But listen to the LaFollette Negroes howl! Great Heavens, how they howl! And they were for LaFollette and lost. Why do they howl! They seem to think they are entitled to a place in the Republican administration of affairs. Some one ought to tell them that LaFollette lost just as utterly as did Mr. John W. Davis. City Councils must have had in mind this week the remarks of President Coolidge when he said in his recent message to Congress that our National and local governments are operated at a cost close to $100. per individual. Council voted to disregard the message of Mayor Magee; and today the tax payers of Pittsburgh are thanking Council for its action. One of the leading "reasons for Magee for Mayor" when he was candidate was his avowed declaration to reduce taxes. His whole platform was one of economy. His great stock in trade was to parade before the eyes of the voters the improvements made when he was Mayor before. Then followed the statement that Magee would improve the city and still keep down taxes. The wonder man—then. But now, what a change! But as soon as the election was made certain by the official count, Mayor Magee forgot every-pre-election promise he made, apparently, and went about the business of raising taxes by an extravagant city administration. Every year the taxes SIXTEEN Yuletide Philanthropy may be said to the contrary, the race is practiced by the clearing abundant fruit.

Journals, North and South, and of the creation of a trust of Mr. Duke, of water power fane, purposes among the white and black. More than that; the trust he desires to see the people especially develop socially as Mr. Duke says as much. He for power industry for the South improve economically. He sees advancement for those same condescend to the extent of his division is simply magnanimous. He present, above the financial profit filled with understanding. Moses as well as whites constitute that orphans are subject to selfishness. He appreciates that the community as well as does beside about four million for New Carolinas. All this is done to believe above any other,—but man Mr. Duke has come to understand rapidly and permanently when every group up and no one particular of things that dictates orphans as well as for the white Mr. Duke for his philanthropy.

This year, Council decided that the people are entitled to some protection. The Mayor says Council is playing politics. If that be true, the people would like very much to see the Mayor join the game and play a little politics in the interest of the people. Lower taxes will mean more building. More buildings mean more revenue for the proper administration of city government. The better and more economic the government, the greater the attraction to citizens to come to the community and help it develop. Council deserves the warm congratulations of the tax payers of Pittsburgh for their evident determination to legislate for the people, and not to please an extravagant Mayor. "A fool" there was, and he made a prayer and this is what he said: For God's sake don't let Mr. Duke and Mr. Eastman know we have a Jack Johnson and a Dean Pickens in our group. The manner in which Negroes are giving out jobs at Washington leaves nothing for President Coolidge to do after March 4. "CHRISTMAS CAROLS" DYER. BILL SECOND DEFICIENRY APPROPRIATION BILL Holloway. 24. Letters to th Wilmington, Del. Dec. 1, 1921. Mr. Robert L. Vann, Editor, The Pittsburgh Courier Pittsburgh, Pa. My dear Mr. Editor: I wish to take this opportunity to express the thanks of the Campaign Committee of our State, Delaware, of which I had the honor to be chairman, to you and the Courier for the very able support you gave us in our last campaign. Every audience of our group during the campaign was entertained now and then by excerpts from your valuable paper, which struck Democratic high- brows among our folks just where the blows were needed. The colored voters of Delaware stood to their post this time as new- registered voters turned out and helped pile up the largest victory this State has ever known. Since our election, I have been flooded with letters from all over the country asking why in our great land-slide here, we failed to elect Jefferson S. Couge to the Legislature? I desire to take this medium to reply to the great number of inquiries we have received from the Jefferson S. Couge, member of the Virgin Islands Commission, is the outstanding Negro of Delaware, and the first man of our race here in Delaware to be honored by any administration with such honors. When Mr. Couge returned from the Virgin Islands, his friends in the First Representative district, the oldest representative district in the United States, white and colored,Democratic of Quebec, alike, the request of him that he quality and run as candidate for the Legislature. After consulting the leaders of district, Mr. Coague qualified and started his campaign. We were all confident that he would win. But to our surprise the party leaders after a conference passed the word to Coun. Clinton to run at the nomination as 'was ineligible. Ineligible on the ground that he was not an "inhabitant" of the State of Delaware. In the Constitution of Delaware, the have climbed up gradually. This ve people are entitled to some protection is playing politics. If that be true, much to see the Mayor join the gai in the interest of the people.

BILL FOSTER BILL the Editor THE BEST ATLL YOU WITH ME LAST 68TH FOSTER BILL a clause pertaining to this case reads as follows: "Any person filing as candidate for Representative to the General Assembly must have been an inhabitant of the State three years prior to date of filing." Mr. Coague was born in Delaware. Has lived all his life in Delaware, except at years spent at school at Wilberforce University from which institution he graduated with honors in 1899, A. B. He cast his first vote in 1900 for McKinley and Roosevelt, and has voted the straight Republican ticket, municipal, State and National every year since. His residence has been all these years at No. 1009 B street, Wilmington, Del. He has always registered and voted from this address. Has been a taxpayer for twenty years in Delaware. Has never changed nor had any intention of changing his address. His occupation has been in Washington, D. C., and his income from Delaware and Washington, D. C. He was selected by the President as a citizen from Wilmington, Delaware, to become a member of the Virgin Islands Commission. We have found that the decisions of the U. S. Supreme Court in this case are on our side. We are going to bring him out again in 1920. He can represent his group in any colony he chooses at any time, and we are very proud of him. Immediately after being taken off the ticket he turned in and helped us pile up one of the greatest victories this State has ever had. The name Coague is now a household word in Delaware, every community in this state has heard him on the Report of the Virgin Islands Commission. Over the broadcasting stations of John Wanamaker, at Philadelphia, Pa. and millions of "listeners-in" have heard this report by Coague. He is the first of our race to be so honored. The party has seen its mistake; the party will correct its mistake. We are going to keep up the fight till we land Jefferson S. Conge in the Delaware Legislature. We will practice law at the bar in Delaware; we want colored men on the juries in the Courts of Delaware. We are this year, Council decided that the section.

The National Negro Finance Corporation recently held a conference there during which time officers for the organization were elected. Major Robert Moton was elected president. One man, R. J. Beverly, a wealthy farmer of Wadesboro, N. C., wrote his personal check for $10,000 worth of stock to the organization that has as its object the developing of race enterprises. morally certain that these things will come about if we can get a man of Conge's ability into our General Assembly. With the support and the support of our group all over the country, I am sure we will win with Conge in 1926. Thanking you for this opportunity to answer and inform my many good friends and the inquiring public, I have the honor to remain, Chas. H. Colburn, Member Delawaro State Central Committee.

University Publication Honors Scott The editor of The Hilltop, published by the students of Howard University, in the football issue of that publication just before the Howard-Lincoln game, paid tribute to Doctor Scott, the secretary-treasurer and business manager of the university in these words: "I sing the praise of a man who, like the prophets of old, is without honor in his own country. The watchdog of the treasury: "The untiring brain behind the big enterprise which we call Howard University. "Efficiency expert: "Chief lobbyist for appropriations. "A stabilizer which prevents your money from being spent like a drunken sailor on shore-leave; "Quiet in manner; "Amiable in personality; "Refined in deportment; "You have guessed his name—Emmet J. Scott." --- A WAVE of anti-Red feeling is sweeping the world. We remember too well the speeches of Mr. Dawes in the West and the overwhelming endorsement of his program at the polls. England kicked MacDonald out and reinstated Baldwin, the Conservative. Now comes Germany with a conservative majority. Herriot has ordered wholesale arrests in France. 'As the world settles down from its reconstruction hysteria the reds are faring the worse for it. THE year 1921 will soon be gone. To busy people it passed all too quickly. Measure how intensely you work by the rapidity with which the Christ-mases come out. This was a good year. It offered splendid opportunities for peaceful gain. In inflation was on the wane. Normalcy is here. A few days are left to plan for a bigger and better year in 1925. THE life of Harry Wills makes interesting reading. It is running really fast. New York daily, and is written with nice pictures of Harry and his wife. It is supposed that this is one of the many little movements now afoot to prepare the "public mind" for the big fight with Jack Dempsey. Harry, according to his own story, started out for himself at a very early age in New Orleans. He has since traveled the world over as a jockey and filly going even outside France during the Boer War with even horses. Wills feels he has earned his present prestige and affluence, and any fair-minded man will agree with him. He wants a chance at the heavyweight title, and if there is any sense of fair play and respect for individual worth left in the prize fight public, he will get it. MUCH has recently been made over the fact that Roland Hayes is now earning $100,000 a year. True, that is a good sum. But think of the struggle he had to get there. More praise should be Incorporated in the foreword of the initial article of this series we made the statement that, before we could successfully penetrate the financial and commercial fields it would be necessary to organize all our energies and resources. We live in an age of organization, surrounded by just two classes of people: the useful and the useless, two colors predominate or differentiate the kind, the majority of both kinds are useful. To what class do you belong? The useful are those who stand in the front rank when things are to be done, they are the great army of patient, unknown, working pushers, whose best years and strength, intelligence and knowledge are devoted to the perfecting of the future generations. They are the pioneers in all worthy causes, enduring the harpships encouraged by the pioneers at the pioneer stage in business. Start pushing. We live in a nation of great progress. Its growth has merely begun. Its opportunities are tremendous. We are a part of this great nation. We shall share in its great possibilities in proportion to its added aggrandizement that we are responsible for. It needs our most energetic men, and qur abstel minds. The great heavy bat of progress there is room for all of us to push unceasingly. What men want to do they can do. During the recent World War emergency production measures, inducted into industrial service Negro labor, skilled, semi-skilled and unskilled. Circumstances and conditions gave him new things to do, gave him new energies, brought him high wages, increased his material wealth. A place long denied us was easily won. Throughout the country today we are holding these places in the industrial world, because it pays to have us. Progressive legislation such as the Volstead Act and the Restrictive Emigration Acts assure the future. These new conditions have changed the way we work. We are beginning to get our heads above the water. No longer are we the submerged group. We are getting ahead. We are beginning to practise thrift because we have something left from our wages to practise with. It is time now to combine our savings to work for the general good of all. UNIONTOWN, PA.

Ethical Excursions Ethical Excursions W virtue is the lack of opportunity and the fear of consequence. This statement will doubtless be howled by the world, because that Washington never told a lie; that the citizens of this great moral republic have their freedom, or who believe that the late fuss of 1914-18 was fought to make the world safe for democracy. People of sound mind, however, will readily agree that the above is one of the few generalizations that is absolutely true. Stupid people will attempt to deny its truth by pointing to this or that person whom they think it does not fit, or even asking people whether they are virtuous for the above reasons. A few minutes thought will render any such investigation unnecessary. Any mentally normal person is aware of the fact that what is left of virtue would rapidly disappear if chapars and purposely with police parents and uplifters were less alert. If the above statement on virtue is not true, how can one explain the Mann Act? How explain the fact that in nearly every park in every city of the United States are electric lights over every bench and bush? All the precautions mentioned above (and many more not mentioned), are for the purpose of reducing opportunity and enhancing fear of seal. A Sinister Device According to news reports a new device has been invented to enable the dumb to speak. I am bitterly opposed to the manufacture and sale of this instrument—there are too many dumb people speaking already in every part of the country. Now if someone will invent an instrument to prevent dumb people from speaking it will receive my enthusiastic endorsement. I feel that something ought to be done to silence about nine-tenths of the revivalists, politicians, Chataqua leurers, and the people who announce the radio concerts. Un-American News I understand there is much weeping and wailing and g. thing of teeth among the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan owadays. The cause of this howl of grief is the recent press report from Germany that after an expenditure of a million dollars and two years of research by eminent scholars, it ultimately established that the race of individual cannot be proven by analysis of his or her blood.
